Give researchers an easy workflow to increase visibility of their research on the OSF, and affiliate their work with your institution.
Single sign-on authentication seamlessly connects your researchers with an integrated framework that accommodates custom research workflows and streamlines institutional data management. Research on OSF is automatically affiliated with your institution.
An institution’s dedication to accessible, reliable research is a source of pride. Institutional members demonstrate their researchers’ work through sharable, branded OSF pages that aggregate projects and registrations from across the institution.
Data management, research designs, and hypotheses are essential building blocks of scholarship, but it can be a challenge to recognize an institution's commitment to research across the lifecycle. Unique OSFI features connect all aspects of the research lifecycle to reveal insights into research investment beyond citations.
OSF connects the many tools researchers and institutions rely on into one platform, simplifying collaboration, access, and storage. Reduce redundancy and service costs by integrating your scholarly services with OSF.
